car-free

Tomorrow is the environmentalist movement's "World Car-Free Day" with plans to disrupt traffic by having crowds of people "get together in the streets, intersections, and neighborhood blocks to remind the world that we don't have to accept our car-dominated society."

Radical groups might well attempt to block expressways in what they call a "celebration of freedom from the automobile."
